The Gothic Novel developed at the end of the 18th century in Europe and it was common to all social classes, in particular thanks to the evolution of printing. The gothic movement was so important that it influence still today the literature. In the beginning the adjective Gothic was applied to architecture, and some times later to the literature. Horace Walpole was the first poet to use the term in a literary contest; in fact he published The Castle of Otranto in 1764, and the book’s subtitle was “A Gothic story”.
The Gothic novel was a development of the sentimental novel with some features added: the fear, the suspense, the terror and the supernatural elements. The nature of fear probably was originated by the bloody revolutions in America and France.
